Prabhat Khabar is the fastest growing Hindi daily in Jharkhand, Bihar & West Bengal and is 7th among the top 10 hindi dailies of India with 9 million readers as per IRS Q4, 2012 and circulation of 8 lakh copies daily across 10 editions. Prabhat Khabar was established in 1984, which was followed by an instant policy failure in 1989 which eventually led to almost shutdown of the newspaper. Operated by some local politicians in a poor/sub-standard infrastructure, overstaffed (250 employees) for six-page newspaper circulated just 500 copies, single edition of Prabhat Khabar printed in Ranchi was in a pathetic situation way back before it was acquired by Neutral Publishing House Limited, promoted by Usha Martin Group. The acquisition marked a big turning point of the newspaper! PK is known for its credibility towards the causes for the people & society. Pro-people Prabhat Khabar is proud of its contents presented by a generous editorial team led by chief editor Harivansh. We never compromise on public issues as we are the 1st Hindi daily who pulled the animal husbandry scam out of closet in the region. KK Goenka, RK Dutta & Harivansh are considerably the three craftsmen behind the overall development of Prabhat Khabar brick by brick which underwent quite an eventful & challenging journey for more than two decades to bring it to the podium where it is standing today. PK boasts its competence in competing 3 leading national dailies viz. Dainik Jagran, Dainik Bhaskar & Hindustan.
